Very interesting stuff tigerbolt.
Any band named "Van der Graaf Generator" will get air time with me.
I'm looking for a band named "Fukushima and the Meltdowns".......

Re: Non Dead-Tired Of That 80th Version Of Mexicali Blues |
Burnt out, maybe, but not quite burnt out on the Dead. I am giving your radio station a try, Tigerbolt. Pretty good by me. I'm always looking for some more inspiration in music of all kinds and nice to have some input. I always try to run through my cd collection in between my huge appetite for the Grateful Dead. Lately I've been listening to a lot of Led Zeppelin and Hendrix, Stevie Ray, Dylan, Marley, Buddy Guy, The Stones, Floyd ( and very inspired by seeing Roger Waters perform the Wall in London's O2 Arena last month!), Johnny Guitar Watson and Glenn Miller Band. Anyways, man, this stuff you got on here rocks and I am loving it. I've saved the page in my favorites and I'll be back.
Thanks a lot. And thanks for sharing lots of cool pictures of the band here at the forum, I've saved lots of those through the years- I was a longtime lurker here before I started posting. And also lots of the Jerry vault choices - you went through a run of putting that stuff out there a while back. I think I missed a couple, but many thanks for sharing.
My Father's Day was good with the kids giving me the Robert Plant Band of Joy cd. I like it. And I think it was coincidence that I've been listening through my Zep disks, I'm sure my wife was aware, but I don't think that influenced her choosing the Robert Plant, I could be wrong, she has surprised me before. Unfortunately, she and I don't share the same love for music (especially the Dead), but she does appreciate it and tolerates me and my nasty habits.

Re: Non Dead-Tired Of That 80th Version Of Mexicali Blues |
at her insistence, a neighbor played me some Mumford & Sons friday nite, not bad at all actually, but i was of course wary of anyone trying to introduce new music since how could they possibly know more than me??
reminded me of a local RI band called Cactus Attack

Re: Non Dead-Tired Of That 80th Version Of Mexicali Blues |
if yer years are primarily the primal years, ol' Mexicali isn't really an issue, fortunately
great collection of bands on your last.fm page, mostly European it seems; but hey, at least we have justin beiber

Re: Non Dead-Tired Of That 80th Version Of Mexicali Blues |
Spun these guys yesterday after the office emptied, liked it enough to give it another shot this morning.
The "What the hell are you listening to?" looks and questions haven't stopped.
These guys remind me of a more melodically organized Tangerine Dream meets Moody Blues sing speak (after wandering through my backyard and eating too many watermelon salvia flowers).
Good stuff. By my latest estimation, I need to live to be 186 to get through all the stuff lined up in the listening queue.
